This certainly is inspirational... but as a high schooler, I'd like to see some steps I can take right now to avoid a soul-crushing job. I have a job that pays me well, and will last me through college, but it's definitely what I want when the majority of my day is spent at work.

Maybe, give me a cloud based equivalent to Notepad++ and a decent audiobook platform, I'm yours.

Google is brilliant. This is the app store for the web. Soon, people will be developing specific applications for this platform because its so easy to find them and for how they can interact with more than just a browser.

@relyk5: I think this is a laudable goal for now, because even today I found some apps that I didn't know existed. However, I think now developers will start working to use the additional privileges that "installable" apps have.

I'm definitely feeling this is the new Chrome Web Store. Just today there was an update to the Dev Channel that allows you to "View background apps"

I LOVED GHOST RIDER! I'm not afraid to admit it, it was fun. Dude with a flaming skull, motorcycles, and I had two hours to kill. I will definitely see this movie

@Dr Durdon: I can't afford a DVD collection, an XBOX, or a PS3, and only barely a Netflix subscription. Thus, Boxee

@Joseph Antonovich: Don't laugh, this was a big consideration for investing in Google TV

@carpe_k9006: Pancakes? Check. Thundercats? Check. Undergarments? Optional. Bacon? F*CK!

@mtfmuffins: Oh... oh my... :'D "God bless America, land, that I love...."

@LusipherPE: Is that a King reference I see there? If so, thank you for making my evening <3

Yes, yes indeed.

Anti-Vista, anti-ME. Do it like you did 7, only more so. Oh, and as for the inclusion of an "App Store": "APP" is way too cutesy to be the word to describe the care and time that goes into developing a high-functioning program.

Yes, I do fake work and I know it. After doing everything to tell my boss that my assignment has gone as far as possible, consulting experts, and even HER bosses, she still won't take me off of this project. So here I am on Lifehacker.

Stephen King fanfiction doesn't happen often enough. I never got around to finishing a story where Parkus [www.wikipedia.org] and Randall Flagg [en.wikipedia.org] are brothers

I'd just like to say I do believe that intelligent non-earth based life exists, and yet I doubt they're much better off than we are. If they could have visited already, they would have. Here's a thought that doesn't get explored much in science fiction: what if humans are the most advanced race in the Universe?

@Al CaPWN: <3 thank ye kindly, sir or madam or other.

@Al CaPWN: Name the episode please, I now have this crazy desire to watch it but can't remember it!!

Tried it last night, loved it. Nice interface, it had all of my favorite tiny local places.

C'mon, just tell us. Who is cloning those b*zznitches?
